Marshall is a handsome black/blue roan/white buckling!  He combines amazing width throughout with tremedous breed character.  We are very excited to have combined the Madelyn/Reese bloodlines, with a little of Soncare Gabriel too!  We have high hopes for this young man to combine the great length and style of his granddam Reese with Madelyn's amazing mammary.

Jacob's Pride Arizona Excelence *B

LA 1-02  87 VVV
DOB: 2/24/2009

I was searching to add new blood to the herd and after an extensive search, I decided on this young man from Debbie Emholtz's herd.  I have long admired the Jacob's Pride animals for their tremendous breed character, extreme dairyness, correct well attached mammaries and milk production.  I never imagined that we would actually ever ship an animal such a distance -- site unseen!  After many, many weeks of waiting, our buck arrived!  He was everything I had imagined and more!  Since we had referred to him as "the new Arizona buck" for so many weeks, the name Arizona seemed appropriate!  Arizona walked into the barnyard and staked his claim.  Then the unbelievable happened, our old girl Cori (who has always HATED buck kids!) fell in love with the handsome boy from the desert!  I was delighted to see Cori bred to Arizona!  I know that such an outcross is risky business in the Nubian world, but it is a risk worth taking in my opinion.  At least, Cori agreed with me! Arizona's dam, Excelente, is strong in general appearance and smoothness of blending.  She also exhibits strong feet/legs with a well attached mammary, and lovely breed character.  Excelente was the 2005 INBA All American Jr Kid and has been 2xGCH, 2xRGCH and 1xBDIS.  She is truly a lovely doe and I am delighted to add her son to our little herd.  2010 Shows                   Out of 9 times shown  --    9x1st and 5xRGCH ***NEWS FLASH***  Arizona was 4x1st and 1xRGCH at the Altamont, NY 4 Ring Buck Show on May 1st!  A week later, on May 8th, he was 2x1st and 1xRGCH at the Delmarva Buck Expo!  In July, Arizona was 3x1st and 3xRGCH at the PDGA/WPDGA show!!  We are delighted with our Arizona boy and we are even more pleased to see his gorgeous daughters this spring!!!!  One daughter, Chaotic Cascade, has already earned her dry leg!

	Tigger is a tall, powerful buck with lots of color!!  Ok, maybe color doesn’t matter but we love the does this buck has produced in our herd.  We haven’t used him in a few years, but still retain 2 of his daughters in our herd (Reese and Southern Comfort).  He has 5 CH daughters and several others with wins.

SGCH Kori-Brook Sir Isaac Newton

LA 4-05 90 EEE

	Isaac is a giant of a goat who passes that height, length, and dairyness onto his offspring. His daughter, Jolie, was the 2006 Reserve Junior National Champion.  We hated to see Isaac leave the herd, but we have several daughters and also semen in the tank.  So Isaac was sold in the fall of 2008.  Semen is available - 5/$100

CH Starfire’s SMP Jose Cuervo
LA 2-02  89  VVE

Cuervo’s granddam, Phanfare, was first place aged doe at the 2004 Nationals.  His mother, Chablis, is a lovely doe with a beautiful udder.  Hopefully, Cuervo, will bring smoothness of blending and improved general appearance to our does.  Cuervo returned to Starfire Nubians for the 2009 breeding season.  We will still plan to use him in our herd via AI. We are saddened to learn that Cuervo died unexpectedly while out on lease this past fall.  Thank goodness for semen collection!

Kori-Brook Isaac Coronado 

DOB: 4/17/07

	Coronado is our crowned prince and he knows it!  A son of two of my favorite goats, I will admit he is a bit spoiled.  He is the spitting image of his father as a kid - tall, long and gangly!!  The Judges hated him, but we don’t care.  They hated his dad and mom  too at this age!  Time will play into his favor. His first kids are on the ground -- tall and long with great width in the escutcheons! Nado was sold in the fall of 2009.

Starfire's KMSO Smooth Argo
 

Argo is on loan to us through our good friend, Helen Snyder of Starfire Nubians.  Smooth Operator and Marvin need no introduction as truly great Nubian bucks. Argo combines these bucks as well as the great Dandy Lion and Sure Thing's sire, Bar-W Santana J. Dandy Santanna sired several GCH and EX90 or above does in the Starfire herd alone. He also combines the strongest and most prepotent Starfire doe line with generation after generation of excellent does. Argo is long and tall and looks very much like the Marvin line. He is a frosted red and as correct as they come. Also typical of Marvin offspring, he was born with a salivary cyst on the outside of his cheek, giving him a "puffy"  look.  Surgery was performed in December of 2008 in an attempt to correct that problem.  Argo will be returning to the Starfire herd.      Argo was selected for the Young Sire Development Program by ADGA. Semen is available through Starfire Nubians.
